This is the tDAR Project page that represents Reports of Investigation 060 from the Applied Anthropology Laboratories, Ball State University. Testing of the Celina Shelter (12-Pe-1023) revealed that the site has been partially buried by a colluvial fan. Approximately 10% of the site area was tested through the excavation of four test units that included both 1 x 1 m squares and 1 x 2 m squares. The maximum depth reached was 1.75 m and excavations were stopped by a massive layer of breakdown. An...

The Sonoran Desert of Southern Arizona was once occupied by the prehistoric Hohokam, a group of agriculturalists who constructed thousands of kilometers of irrigation canals as well as public architecture, including platform mounds and bailcourts. They also appear to have been keen astronomical observers, although the subject of Hohokam archaeoastronomy remains underexplored. This paper summarizes previous Hohokam archaeoastronomy studies, discusses O'odham (Piman) Indian calendar systems,...

The site under discussion in this report was one of approximately seventy-five which were excavated in the area immediately along the Grand or Nesho Rover in 1938-1940. The excavations were conducted through the Works Projects Administration under the sponsorship of the University of Oklahoma. They were designed to salvage as much archaeological material as possible before the dam being constructed on the Grand River backed up water which would inundate the sites. This site and others were...

There are few open areas as the road winds between the Mogollon Rim to the north and Christopher Mountain to the south. Prehistoric and historic sites are situated on the hills and terraces above the permanent...

The purpose of the site visit was to assess the presence and nature of archaeological sites near springs in the new addition to the Natural Area. This was not a systematic survey hut a quick check of the area surrounding three springs; Coal Mine Spring, George Wise Spring, and Matachin Spring. We spent over an hour at each spring. This initial site visit was useful for understanding the potential for buried cultural remains, geomorphological/erosion Issues, and other factors that may affect the...
